Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

NetherlandsIt was a bit pricey for what you get, the rooms were not well maintained but staff said they are renovating. It was also bad timing as the beach was dirty with overwhelming amount of seaweed on the shore, ( its the season so not property's fault ) so we did not get to enjoy lounging or swimming at all! It also gets very dak at night, should have more lighting around the property!
Kind and friendly staff, resto food was delicious and worth the price ( really generous servings) Gym with modern equipment ( but should have AC)

NetherlandsWe stayed in a Deluxe quadruple room (family room) but we only get 1 toilet paper everyday 🥲 was really not enough, at least put 2 or 3 considering they’re very thin. That was the only downside for me.
Location wasn’t so far from the port. Breakfast was good.

PhilippinesOur accommodation room, we thought that it was on the ground floor but instead we are billeted on the second floor, not considering that the two of us are Person with Disability (PWD) and it's hard for us to go up and down the stairs.
When we book good for 4 pax , we thought that it was with free breakfast, but to our dismay when we arrived at Jelly's the front desk told us that our booking is with no breakfast.

PhilippinesWhat I don't like in not on the venue but the tide. We were not able to swim there because at morning and in the late afternoon, it is always low tide. Of course, it is not under their control. We just picked a wrong timing. But we enjoyed our stay. But we spent most of our time outside to roam around the island.
The venue is good and vibrant. A good place to relax especially at night.

DenmarkNoisy, you must count that all around neighbourhood is roosters who makes terrible noise in morning. Different stinky aromas time after time have been observed, no idea from where they came. In shower was water leakage from water heaters hose. Didn’t complain because was not so important, but someone can find it a problem. Breakfast was very basic for this price category hotel.
Location next to the nice blue water beach. Helpful and professional staff. Nicely designed territory.

PhilippinesWe are not entirely a fan of the complementary breakfast because we have very limited choices -- only three types of meal. I would appreciate it if there's more options for breakfast just so we can have more variety in the meals that we're eating. There are many other breakfast options on the menu but they are all subject to payment. I hope there's a way we can just use up the value of the complementary breakfast and off-set it against breakfast options that require payment. We also find it inconvenient that there are only certain areas where WiFi is available. WiFi is also not as reliable even if you're in the WiFi zone. Although, I really wouldn't take this against the resort as it is a really good excuse to disconnect from everything and enjoy the resort experience :) We also wish all rooms have bidets -- ours doesn't have one but our friend's room does. Rooms could also use a small refrigerator so guests can keep their water or juices nice and cool. I hope they continue to keep in front of the resort clean as well given that I've spotted some plastic wrappings despite the prohibition on eating near the beach. I understand that it is every guest's responsibility to pick up after their trash but for those who cannot be responsible, I hope the resort would cover for them.
We stayed at Jelly's for 8 nights and we are truly happy with this place. Our aim is to get away from our busy lives for a moment and we achieved this indeed. The resort's location is perfect because it is both near tourist spots that are fun to explore and near town for a variety of good meals at an affordable price. The resort has their own restaurant as well which does not disappoint. I actually don't expect good meals from the island but the resort proved me wrong. We love every meal that we bought and they are also reasonably priced. One of my travel companions is very picky with food so we truly appreciate that the restaurant was able to accommodate our food requests for our friend. The bartender also makes really good drinks and I'm happy my companions find the drinks to be of excellent quality. The staff are very friendly and easy to approach which made our stay more comfortable and convenient. I am also very satisfied with the resort's free shuttle. I honestly expect it to be just a local tricycle or multicab so I could not believe that a huge van was waiting for us at the port to take us to the resort. We also truly appreciated that the driver went to the resort at 4:30AM on the day of our departure to take us to the port to catch our 5AM ferry. This type of service is incredibly remarkable. I also want to point out how trustworthy the staff are. We are not afraid or worried about our stuff missing after getting our room tidied up. The staff also cleans the room well and we love getting our room cleaned often because of how fresh and clean it feels. I also like to point out that the resort not only has a restaurant, they also have a boutique where they sell goggles, sunscreens and other beach wears, and they have a mini convenience store where they sell drinks and snacks. This place truly provides everything that you need.
